Laser Engraving on Sterling Silver.
Laser engraving is a popular technique for adding detailed designs, text, or images onto sterling silver items. Sterling silver is a highly versatile metal that can be used for jewelry, giftware, and other decorative objects, and laser engraving offers precise and intricate customisation options. Laser engraving can be used to create personalised pieces of jewelry, commemorative items, or promotional products, and it can also be used to add serial numbers or branding information to silver products. Additionally, laser engraving can be used to create intricate patterns or designs that are difficult to achieve through traditional engraving methods, making it a popular choice for high-end and custom silver items.

Sterling Silver in Retail Applications.
Laser engraving machines have become an indispensable tool for many businesses and manufacturing houses that work with this metal. It is easy to laser engrave etch or mark sterling silver in seconds! What’s more, the precision of the laser beam is so accurate that a human worker or craftsman would find difficult to match. Increasingly, shoppers want to make age-old gifts and products more special by adding an individual’s name or personal message. Businesses that offer to personalise their products on the fly stand to win in a competitive marketplace. The laser machine is perfectly suited for such personalisation tasks. Simply open the software, edit the text and press start to begin the laser process.
A laser engraving machine is a perfect fit for engraving sterling silver. The precision of the laser beam ensures that very little is wasted when engraving or cutting the material. With the cost of the metal being so high, any wastage can affect a business’s bottom-line. Therefore, manufacturers are increasingly utilising the power of the laser to reduce wastage and increase productivity. When working with precious metals ,the standard process for etching, engraving, marking is known as “annealing”. The annealing process is achieved by changing the colour of the silver metal by oxidation without any material loss. Since sterling silver is a relatively soft metal, a successful mark requires high-speed and limited power. The advantage of using such parameters means that a mark can be completed in seconds.
The Benefits.
A fiber laser engraver offers unparalleled quality and reliability. It can create excellent engravings that are permanent and legible – even down to extremely small and thin lines. The N-Lase software allows creators to easily add text, barcodes or images and get a preview of the working area before engraving. The accuracy and reliability of a laser marker is highly valued when working with precious metals such as silver. The laser also leaves behind a smooth, polished finish that will not tarnish over time like other engraving techniques. Additionally, the laser can etch onto any surface without damaging the material itself, making it ideal for delicate pieces of jewellery.

For automotive coding and marking applications, we recommend the following high-performance printer solutions:
Proto Lase
The Proto Lase is our entry-level laser marking system for industrial identification applications, perfect for marking, etching, engraving and annealing all metals, coated metals, plastics and some organic materials.
This system is the ideal solution for low to mid-volume throughput and is an affordable alternative to more traditional methods of marking, such as dot peen, electrochemical etching or hand marking. Despite being entry-level and affordable we haven’t sacrificed on quality or efficiency; equipped with a 30 Watt or 60 Watt MOPA fiber laser with a MTBF of 100,000 marking hours and a 3-year comprehensive warranty, as standard.
Neutro Lase
The Neutro Lase offers maximum versatility for industries wishing to mark, etch and engrave larger parts. Designed to sit on a worktop within existing manufacturing cells and processes.
Due to its larger footprint and modular design, the Neutro Lase can offer a broad range of optional extras such as XY marking tables for increased throughput, large marking area lenses, big rotary attachments for circumference marking on large diameter parts and power sources from 30 watt up to 100 watt for maximum speed and depth.
With our 3-year comprehensive warranty, the Neutro Lase is the ideal solution for the efficient and reliable etching of heavy-duty parts in industrial environments.
Atom Lase
The Atom Lase offers our biggest enclosure mounted onto a portable base to offer maximum flexibility. It can be located within an existing manufacturing process or operate as a standalone marking and traceability station. With an auto door function, the Atom Lase is a turnkey solution; simply wheel into the desired location and start etching.
With such a large enclosure, the Atom Lase can be fitted with a wide range of options to further increase efficiencies and offer maximum throughput. Options include XY marking tables to facilitate the loading of multiple parts, large marking area lenses, big rotary attachments for circumference marking on large diameter parts and power sources from 30 Watt up to 100 Watt for maximum speed and depth.
As with all our range, maximum reliability and robustness is assured with our 3-year comprehensive warranty.
